A Maternal Wellbeing App for the Moments Motherhood Feels Heavy
Founder Story
Hi, I’m Deborah — founder of DearMe and mum to a little girl who flipped my world upside down (and made it better in the messiest way).
When she was born, everything changed — sleep, identity, safety, certainty. I wanted to capture memories and journal to make sense of it all, but motherhood wasn’t stillness. It was chaos stitched together with love. I always had my phone in my hand, but a paper diary didn’t stand a chance.
So I started using voice notes, scribbles in my phone, and screenshots of moments I didn’t want to forget. I discovered a need for a journaling app that could help mothers like me navigate through the post partum chaos.
And slowly, the idea for DearMe took shape — a space mothers could turn to for small moments of grounding, honesty, and emotional clarity.
Why DearMe Exists
Motherhood is intimate. Joyful and raw. Lonely and full.
In the blur of feeding schedules and long nights, we’re so often the ones holding everything together, but rarely held ourselves.
DearMe exists because mothers deserve micro-support in the moments between support. Not more pressure, not more performing. Just honest, quiet reflection that helps you feel grounded again, allowing you to capture memories of these fleeting moments.
Whether it’s a quick voice note at 2am or a one-line pause in the middle of your day, DearMe meets you where you are, serving as a journaling app that understands the challenges of post partum life.
This isn’t about being productive.
It’s about being seen — even if it’s just by yourself.
The Vision
We believe in motherhood as it truly is — beautiful, boring, brutal, breathtaking. DearMe is designed to be the place where your real life has a voice, not just the highlight reel. Whether you want to capture memories, track your emotions, document tiny milestones, or simply let something out of your chest, DearMe is your perfect journaling app. It is private, flexible, evidence-aligned, and built with maternal-health experts. We’re building a tool that supports what really matters: presence, memories, and moments that remind you that you’re still you, especially during the post partum journey.
Where it's Going
We’re in the early stages of bringing DearMe to life, with the first version of the journaling app now underway.
Right now, we’re inviting mums to join the waitlist, test early versions, and help us shape the experience.
Your feedback. Your lived experience. Your moments. They’re guiding every step as we aim to capture memories that truly matter.
If you’ve ever thought, “I just need a moment to feel like myself again,” especially during the post partum period, you’re exactly who we’re building this for.
